I have a Teddy bear hamster, he was a class pet given to my 4 year old autistic son. We recently noticed that Teddy’s anus is swollen and black, and when he urinates it smell more awful then before. I have not notice any diarrhea, just that his butt is black and swollen. And if I have to take him to the vet, any recommendations?

Thanks for reaching out about Teddy and including pictures. It would be concerning that this would be an peri-anal abscess or obstruction. A veterinary visit is recommended, for tomorrow. The urine might smell worse because of a urinary tract infection or concentrated due to lack of drinking.
Good luck with the veterinary visit.
